Now that we finally know forces at each wheel, determining the loads for your specific dynamics parts design (primarilly suspension) requires even more math, usually based on the principles of statics. You’ll probably want Excel, Python or Matlab to solve this stuff for you. That is to say, you will need to do math to find out how forces from the contact path will translate and be resisted by the geometry of your parts!

By convention, we choose to design around the left side of the car. That is, under a ‘1G left turn’ case, there will be more loading on thee left side, and vice-versa for the right side.
